License Prep
At Cadet360, we aim to help you become a safe, knowledgeable, competent mariner. Although most license study programs have focused on question/answer memorization in the past, we aim to guide you through the studying process so that you know the reasoning behind the answer to the question instead of just having memorized the answer. With the way the US Coast Guard has been approaching the exams and new questions, this is not only the best way to prepare to be a mariner, but it is now the most effective way to study for the exam.
We hope our study prep structure helps you prepare for the exam. Good luck!
Study Materials
We provide a wide variety of materials to help guide you through the studying process for the License Exam. This includes written explanations, video examples/discussions, presentations, flashcards, practice tests, etc.. We also offer services including a forum where you can ask questions openly to other mariners who are using Cadet360 to study and scheduling 1-on-1 tutoring with license exam experts.
Although we do include Coast Guard Questions as a part of the studying process, this is to allow you to practice with the format of the questions, not to memorize the questions. We do NOT have the full bank of questions (no one does anymore) and some of the questions we have provided may be questions we created which we feel are good representations of what you might see on the Coast Guard Exam.
We have chosen to use outside services and apps such as Quizlet, Prezi, and YouTube as we feel this is the best way to provide the best study software while keeping your price tag down. We let the experts focus on developing the best study software so that you we can focus on providing the best study content. These services might ask you to set up an account, but you should not need to pay an additional fee. The free version offered should provide everything you need to be successful. Only difference is it might have some commercials. You can pay for the commercial free if you wish. Just make sure you use the same email you used when you set up an account with us or you may not be able to access our materials.

Sometimes, learning is best from shared experience. Use this forum board to ask questions and help other subscribers with the licensing process. This includes how to complete a problem or more information about a subject so that you can understand it better. Also, this is a good place to share experiences from the exam room so that others know what to expect. What worked the best for you? Anything that you might think could be helpful to those studying for the license exam.
